Psymon1994 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Ok so heres my problem. I'm overhauling the wildlife in Oblivion and i'm trying to add new species. But i have know idea how to get them to spawn. I've tried opening up the spawn points that are scattered around the game world but it wont let me place the creatures in the spawn points. Also (it's kind of gross i know, but hey) Would it be possible to use a script to change the appearance of an animal in game? like after you take the skin of the animal? (for realism) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pronam Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 You would have to replace the animal with another one, that replacement has to be scripted. The skinless part would have to be modeled and is far from easy. You would have to edit the leveled creatures-lists. You'd have to drag and drop them from the creatures to the creatures leveled lists used in oblivion. (probably the ones containing deers and lions.)

Psymon1994 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Getting the skinned textures would be no problem for me,, I've got tons of experience with photoshop and a degree in animal illustration. But i'm not that good at scripting :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticz Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 You do not need scripting for this. Think about what level you wish the creature to be and get the animal all set up the way you want it. The best way to do this is to make a copy of a lion or wolf so that the wander and AI settings are the way you want them. Then, in the CS, right click on the creature (not the new one but the old one you have not edited) and select 'use info' on the menu that pops up. Leave the 'Use Report' window open and find the leveled lists in that window in the Leveled Creatures lists. You will have to then drag your new creature into the list and select what player level you want the creature to show up at, how many you want to show up and what percent chance there will be none. If you just mimic the other creatures in the list you should be fine. NOTE: Once you do this, your mod will conflict with any other mod that modifies leveled creatures lists. Hope this helps and is not too confusing. Sticz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
